911 made wars against Afghanistan and Iraq possible. Might the downing of Flight 191 have been intended as the necessary provocation for a war against Iran? In light of modern American history, it's insane to not consider that possibility.
This article was published first at my site, which was founded in July 2005; three weeks after my first of seven trips to Israel Palestine.
“Take Egypt out and the whole structure of the Israelites' tale would instantly fall.”
A November 30 Physicians for Human Rights/Israel (PHR-I) report explains “chilling evidence” of atrocities committed against sub-Saharan African refugees, migrants, and asylum seekers.
Iranians know quite well that a country engaged in perpetual war…where innocent citizens are arrested on trumped-up charges…has little right to speak about Iran, Seyed Marandi
Former CIA Director Panetta condemns Marines peeing on dead Taliban with “utterly deplorable” comment. Ain’t that the pot calling the kettle black? .
Once upon a time, I ran the largest shelter for Homeless Veterans in the USA, located in Boston Massachusetts. Here is a story that I remember with a smile:
A friend of mine called and said: We should try to find ways to advance ourselves with our allies and even our perceived enemies by sharing our knowledge of prosthetics.
Two VT columnists, one from America and one from Pakistan exchanged ideas, concepts and concerns. This posting reflects questions and answers that are important to both of our countries.
Forget about Occupy Wall Street. My readers and other Veteran Advocates nationwide say “Occupy HUD” and ask How many Iraqi or Afghanistan Combat Wounded Veterans Live in HUD Subsidized or Disability Housing?
Last February, euphoric celebrations followed Mubarak’s ouster. Across the Middle East and North Africa, people rejoiced.
Last week we asked the Honorable Shawn L.S. Donovan, Secretary of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development of HUD, the following question “Where has the HUD Veteran Resource Center (HUDVET) been hiding during our nations housing crisis?”
I know people who work at HUD, one of the largest federal agencies in the country. HUD of course deals in housing, but also in homelessness.
Egyptian Ambassador to the Palestinian Authority, Yasser Othman believes Israel is plotting to retake control of the Sinai peninsula, he said in an interview with Palestinian news agency Ma’an published on Friday.

Israel and Greece invoke mutual defense pact signed secretly 12 days ago
On August 18, Israel aggressively entered Sinai, killing five Egyptian security force members and injuring seven others.
The total destruction of Israel, something used by the Zionist lobby to bilk the US out of billions for years, is no longer a dream, it is inevitable. The only question is “when?” With it a limited world war may emerge with some surprises in store.
“A security wall erected around the Israeli embassy, a strong reminder of the West Bank barrier, was totally unacceptable in Cairo.”
The people of Egypt are proved to be far more responsible and ethical than their political leaders. The citizens of the world should follow.
“Peace with Egypt, which is considered an asset, only when it is at risk, was a peace that Israel toyed with and breached from the beginning.”
While hard working American tax payers face economic hardships, 81 members of Congress neglected listening to their constituents during this summers recess to take a lobbyist-funded trip designed to pressure them into sending even more tax-payer-funded weapons to the Israeli military which will be used to commit human rights abuses against Palestinians.
‘Ahmad A-Shahat says he ‘insisted on climbing on the roof and take down the flag of the Zionist entity because that was one of the goals of the revolution – to depose Mubarak and all his friends, among them the Zionist entity’
“Mubarak is a sellout and he should have been charged with high treason”
Bring the Army home and close the friggin’ borders totally, “shoot to kill” totally.
Freeze all assets held by Federal Reserve banks. If any (almost all) those banks are found to be foreign owned, declare all relationships with them to be inconsistent with our constitution. America will no longer pay banks, particularly foreign owned, to profit on our debt, sell us our own money and do so in direct violation of our laws.
